Hi everyone, One of our most common FAQs is around installing additional software into the global zone, specifically the existing pkgsrc boostrap kits. As anyone who has done this knows, this can be an error-prone experience, due to incompatibilities with the design of the global zone.
I've started fleshing out an RFD that looks to improve this: https://github.com/joyent/rfd/tree/master/rfd/0042 and whilst the RFD is still nascent and under development, this is one which needs your input from the earliest stage. Specifically I'd like the community's input into the 4 main areas described in the proposal. Let me know what packages you need, how we can optimise the set for the global zone, and any useful integration ideas you may have. As this could get rather verbose with "I need package X" type requests, please either mail me directly (be careful about the list setting Reply-To), send pull requests / comments to the RFD, or as always just ping me on IRC.
